Free Logo Creator by Jeta Design is a simple piece of software you can use to design your own logo for free. The program was developed with simplicity in mind, and in three steps, you can create your very own logo. It comes packaged with pre-made styles, logo templates, and thousands of design elements like vector shapes and icons.
After choosing one of the templates, you can edit it using the design tools and have your logo ready to go in as little as 5 minutes or design your logo from scratch. There are alternative programs you can use such as DrawPad Free Graphic and Logo Designer, which is more sketch-based, allowing you to create your own graphics. There’s also EximiousSoft Logo Designer, which is similar to Free Logo Creator but it has logo templates and over 5,000 icons to choose from.
Installing Free Logo Creator
To install Free Logo Creator for Windows, click on the download button, then double click on the file when it’s downloaded to launch the installation wizard.
You’ll need at least 21.4 MB of free disk space to install Free Logo Creator, which isn’t a lot for most computers. Now, choose where on your computer to install the program, and click ‘Install’. When the progress bar reaches the end, you can launch Free Logo Creator.
Free Logo Creator features
Free Logo Creator is suitable for both amateur and professional users. It has a clean and straightforward user interface with large labels, so you can easily find the tool or object you need. Before creating your logo, a prompt window will ask if you want to choose from one of the pre-made designs or a blank project.
When selecting from a pre-made logo, there are many logo templates available, ranging from abstract to cartoons to minimalist. Clicking on each style design on the right-hand side brings up a list of templates. You can edit the logo templates by simply selecting one of the logo examples.
You can tweak each design element, such as the text and icons. Change their size, colour, orientation, scale, and more. With the objects library, you can add basic shapes, abstract shapes, or icons related to the following industries:
- Equipment, engineering
- Law, accounting
- Tools, repair
- Flowers, plants
- Building, houses
- People
- Energy, power
- Animals
- Web elements, search
- Bags, buying, tags
- Charts, layout
- Celebrations, leisure
- Time, schedule
- Cooking, food
- Vehicles, planes
- Delivery, storage
- Sport
- Clothes, shoes, jewellery
- Beauty, medicine
- Weather
- Music, sound
- Draw, design
- Cartoon, style, kids
- Earth, globe
- Movie, photo
- Ships, marine
- Arrows
- Esoteric
- Religious
- Maps
- Brands, registered signs
On the right-hand side of the design window is the styles library. Here you’ll find a wide range of colour options such as gloss and stroke, white to colour, gradients and reflections, and many more styles.
When you’re happy with your design, all you need to do is save it and export it to use it. You can save your logo in a variety of formats: PNG, JPEG, and vector formats like SVG, EPS, and PDF. You can also import logo designs to Free Logo Maker and use the editing tools to change them.
Overall the user interface does feel slightly dated. It’s old fashioned compared to sleek web apps, but it’s certainly easy to use and doesn’t use up many of your computer’s resources. This is ideal if you’re computer struggles to use the latest design software.
Free vs paid version
While you can use Free Logo Maker at no charge, it’s essentially a trial. You can use all of the templates and editing options as much as you want. But when it’s time to save and export your logo design, you’ll need to pay a one-time fee to unlock the premium version.
A simple and intuitive logo maker
Free Logo Maker is a good choice of a logo maker for both non-professional and professional graphic designers who need to design a logo. Thanks to the large array of templates, and simple editing suite, it doesn’t take very long to enter text, choose an icon, arrange everything on the screen, and apply a colour palette.
Free Logo Maker doesn’t offer a sketch-based logo design (that’s not the app's intention), but if you’re looking for something along those lines, you’ll be better served trying out an alternative software, such as DrawPad Free Graphic and Logo Designer.
